Parametric study of vortex train generated by plasma actuator in dependency on input voltage waveform
Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic, Institute of Thermomechanics, Dolejškova 1402/5, 18200 Prague, Czech Republic
This article is based on previous work of authors. The vortex train is created by a plasma DBD actuator after application of low-frequency amplitude modulation on high-frequency high-voltage carrier waveform. Data acquisition of flow field around actuators will be performed using time-resolved PIV measurement technique in plane parallel to flow and in cross-section. Phase-averaging will be used due to pseudo-periodical character of this process. The vortex behaviour dependency on modulation frequency, duty cycle, voltage value, electrode gap and other parameters will be shown. The generated flow patterns are to be applied for control of a boundary layer.
